As you can see, the only problem is that there is a small gap between

Just add offset=overlay to your TABLE setup.

My guess is that the expansion of \mathstrut, being \vphantom(, is being

The following has to be added to nath for spacing to work correctly:

adding it anywhere after

seems to work fine. The problem is that $ is redefined, but
\mathematics doesn't catch on so the spacing gets all messed up.
